How rude of me to not include at least 1 photo on a coin community forum! Here's a 1882.

The 1882 looks AU'ish and lightly cleaned to me.

I'll definitely setup a better camera and lighting to get better images of the rest!

I believe you may have overpaid at $35 each if the pic of one of the morgans is indicative of what you bought.

That looks to be a scan, common date in BU condition value is $35 or slightly more?

mkman123, I agree 100% that you are right. I took them to the local coin show on Sunday and I was informed that many of them were dipped and wire brushed. Even the ones with full details.
Dealers wouldn't pay $17 for them. I talked with my neighbor and he returned my money... WHEW!

This is what happens when you stop collecting coins for a while, and the prices were much higher back then...

Very sporting of him to take them back, but then again he is your neighbor. I doubt you and he'd be talking for a few days if it was understood one had inadvertently been taken advantage of by the other.
Did you end up buying the silver?

Glad you were able to return. I was about to reply that $35 for a random lot of Morgans is extremely steep unless you have a chance to review the lot first. Any cleaned coin, for example, is going to be worth melt.

I thought he was paying 13X face for the Morgans, 100 coins=$1300. Now that's a deal . .

Glad to hear he took them back. $35 each for Morgan dollars is high especially for 100 of them.
